And no crash damage either. Quite humourous considering the widespread predictions of disaster over the past week or so.

Perhaps this is where it clicks for Mazepin - you will do better and go faster by driving at 95% and logging the laps than you will by driving at 99% and spinning all the time.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Yea, that whopping 0.009s looks real ominous for Mick. I'm sure he's plenty worried...
Actually I think the shunt will be a good wake up call for Mick and get him a bit more dialed in for the rest of the weekend. I expect him to comfortably outpace Mazespin again when it matters.

They obviously need to bring a crane there. Had he parked somewhere else, the car would've been craned away in a jiffy.


I have seen in earlier years a crane at the chicane, but it probably covers only the area instantly next to the track. If the car is stuck to the wall which Perez hit in 2011 it would be OK to crane it off.

In the press conference, Mattia Binotto openly admitted that they have a flexible rear wing and that they would probably have to make some changes.

He did add that most of the teams are doing it, but it's still interesting to hear a team boss freely admit to something like this.

So everyone has it except Mercedes? We'll soon head back to boring 1-2's then :(

Porsche Supercup fastest time setter did a full Rosberg, spinning in Rascasse to try and keep pole by bringing out yellow flags.....

The trouble with that now is, if you set pole and have a genuine spin on your next lap, no-one is ever going to believe you didn't do it on purpose :lol:

of course Mercedes has it, but they also have FIA on their side so no matter how hard the teams try, they'll always lose

That new replay sound effect will ring in my head when I try to sleep, I'm sure.
